The Serengeti rug is just one of many rugs featured in their new Global Expedition line (others include the Alhambra, the Kyoto, and the Cortina). The Serengeti was inspired by the exotic wildlife and landscape of the African wilderness. This sisal and linen combo is woven in an earthy palette of sun and sand with shiny yards in a simple but visually stimulating design.

As you probably already know, sisal rugs are currently a very popular choice of rugs for the home because they are so versatile. We love this area rug because it brings neutral texture to a room and looks great with any type of decor. With a sisal, you aren’t tied to a particular color scheme which I LOVE as I am constantly changing around the rooms in my house.
